6 Enter your logon information
End users will typically follow the manual logon steps. Consult your network
administrator for instructions.
✎
For additional security, network administrators can use HP Logon Manager to
disable and reenable automatic logon and to change the automatic logon user
name, password, and domain. For details, refer to the HP Mobile Thin Client
reference guides on the Web.
Automatic logon
The factory setting for the computer is automatic logon.
✎
Only the network administrator can change automatic logon properties.
With automatic logon, the Log On to Windows dialog box is bypassed, which
brings you directly to the Windows desktop. So, to log on as a different user, follow
these steps:
1. Press and hold down the left
Shift key, and then click Start.
2. Click Shut Down, and then click Log Off.
The Log On to Windows dialog box opens, allowing you to manually enter
the logon information.
Manual logon
If the automatic logon is disabled by the network administrator, log on as follows:
1. In the Log On to Windows dialog box, type your information in the User
Name and Password boxes. For a user, the initial user name and password are
both User. For an administrator, the initial user name and password are both
Administrator.
2. Click OK.
Note the following considerations:
■ To prevent unauthorized access to your information, change your password as
soon as possible after setup.
■ Passwords are case sensitive, but user names are not.

Wireless antennae
Wireless antennae send and receive signals from one or more wireless devices.
These antennae are not visible from the outside of the computer.
✎
The computer display must be open, and the antennae free from obstruction,
before you can connect to a wireless network.
To see wireless regulatory notices, refer to the “Regulatory, safety, and
environmental notices” section in this guide, and then refer to the subsection that
applies to your country or region.

Product information
Safe operation
Å
WARNING: To reduce the risk of electric shock or damage to your equipment,
observe these practices:
■ Plug the power cord into an AC outlet that is easily accessible at all times.
■ Disconnect power from the computer by unplugging the power cord from the AC
outlet (not by unplugging the power cord from the computer).
■ If provided with a 3-pin attachment plug on your power cord, plug the cord into
a grounded (earthed) 3-pin outlet. Do not disable the power cord grounding pin,
for example, by attaching a 2-pin adapter. The grounding pin is an important
safety feature.
Å
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious injury, read the Safety & Comfort Guide. It
describes proper workstation setup and proper posture, health, and work habits for
computer users. The Safety & Comfort Guide also provides important electrical and
mechanical safety information. The Safety & Comfort Guide is available on the Web
at http://www.hp.com/ergo.
Å
WARNING: To reduce the possibility of heat-related injuries or of overheating the
computer, do not place the computer directly on your lap or obstruct the computer air
vents. Use the computer only on a hard, flat surface. Do not allow another hard
surface, such as an adjoining optional printer, or a soft surface, such as pillows or
rugs or clothing, to block airflow. Also, do not allow the AC adapter to contact the skin
or a soft surface, such as pillows or rugs or clothing, during operation. The computer
and the AC adapter comply with the user-accessible surface temperature limits defined
by the International Standard for Safety of Information Technology Equipment (IEC
60950).
Å
WARNING: To reduce potential safety issues, use only the AC adapter or battery
provided with the computer, a replacement AC adapter or battery provided by HP, or
a compatible AC adapter or battery purchased as an accessory from HP.
For more safety and regulatory information, and for battery disposal information,
refer to “Regulatory, safety, and environmental notices” section in this chapter.

Product information
Important display information
All HP notebook display panels adhere to strict quality and reliability
specifications. A small percentage of display panels may have minor cosmetic
imperfections that appear as bright or dark dots (described below) in the
viewable area:
✎
This is consistent with industry standards and common to all display panel
types used by notebook PC vendors and is not specific to any HP model or
product line.
■ A pixel consists of 1 red, 1 green, and 1 blue subpixel, each of which is
commonly referred to as a dot.
■ A pixel imperfection may manifest as either always turned on (a bright spot on
a dark background) or as always off (a dark spot on a bright background).
■ A subpixel imperfection is less visible than a whole pixel imperfection,
because it is small and may be visible only on a specific background.
HP expects that, over time, the industry will continue to improve its ability to
produce displays with fewer cosmetic imperfections, and HP will adjust guidelines
as improvements are made.
For more information about the display panel on your notebook PC, go to the HP
Web site: http://www.hp.com/support

Federal Communications Commission notice
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B
digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency
energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation.
If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
■ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
■ Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
■ Connect the equipment to an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the
receiver is connected.
■ Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television technician for help.
Modifications
The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications made to
this device that are not expressly approved by HP may void the user's authority to
operate the equipment.
Cables
To maintain compliance with FCC Rules and Regulations, connections to this
device must be made with shielded cables having metallic RFI/EMI connector
hoods.

WARNING: Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation The radiated output power of
this device is below the FCC radio frequency exposure limits. Nevertheless, the device
should be used in such a manner that the potential for human contact is minimized
during normal operation of tablet PCs and notebooks.
During normal operation of tablet PCs: To avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC
radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to the antennae should not be less
than 2.5 cm (1 inch). To identify the location of the wireless antennae, refer to the
Tablet PC Tour user guide included with the computer.
During normal operation of notebooks: To avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC
radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity to the antennae should not be less
than 20 cm (8 inches), including when the computer display is closed. To identify the
location of the wireless antennae, refer to the Notebook Tour section of the references
guides that are located on the HP Web site.
Ä
CAUTION: When using IEEE 802.11a wireless LAN, this product is restricted to
indoor use, due to its operation in the 5.15- to 5.25-GHz frequency range. The FCC
requires this product to be used indoors for the frequency range of 5.15 GHz to
5.25 GHz to reduce the potential for harmful interference to cochannel mobile satellite
systems. High-power radar is allocated as
the primary user of the 5.25- to 5.35- GHz
and 5.65- to 5.85-GHz bands. These radar stations can cause interference with
and/or damage to this device.
